H&M Just Dropped the Most Expensive-Looking Basics
I’ll admit it, there are a lot of minimalist edits knocking about these days. Whether it’s the high street offering luxe-looking pieces or designer brands whose whole aesthetic is about pared-back simplicity, it’s a trend that’s been inescapable for the past few seasons. Daniel Lee‘s design’s for Bottega Veneta have obviously been a huge influence, as has The Row’s covetable pieces, but let us not underestimate the lasting legacy of Phoebe Philo’s Celine too. Here’s why it’s so popular: it screams understated luxury, even when it might not be. Case in point: H&M’s new minimalist edit. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

All My Friends Keep Asking Me to Find Vintage Blouses Like Laura Marling’s
I might not be a music buff, but I do consider myself a bit of a vintage fashion fanatic, and something tells me that there might be a few of our readers who are a little (read: a lot) in love with the singer’s chic smock tops, so I wasted no time in delving into the online archive. Luckily for us, these ‘80s, Victorian-inspired blouses are in abundance on resale platforms, such as Etsy and Rokit, right now. After a bit of digging, I managed to find 18 pieces that offer the same throwback cool that Marling so beautifully embodies in her videos. Versatile and easy to style, they’re begging to be worn with high-waisted jeans and tucked into cowboy boots for the full Princess Di vibe.

These Autumn Knits Are So Good, I Want to Start Wearing Them Now
As we’re spending more time indoors and at home this year, many of us are prioritising comfort and ease when getting dressed, and this will have a significant impact on the trends for autumn winter 2020. Loungewear will continue to be a growing category this year, however fashion buyers that I have spoken to expect that instead of joggers, hoodies and sweatshirts, there will be a demand for more elevated options, with knitted co-ords and layered separates being key sellers. “Leisure wear will continue to be grow, but done in a modern way from brands such as Les Tien,” says Liane Wiggins, Head of Womenswear Buying at MatchesFashion. The knitted dress is set to be a hero buy for autumn, as designers such as Jil Sander and Jacquemus have created beautiful ...

11 Steps to Finding Your Personal Style and Sticking to It
The term “signature style” is fashion jargon that gets thrown around a lot, but what does it mean? The idea of discovering your own personal style is often too heavily weighted on celebrity style icons. While clicking through hundreds of pictures of the Olsen twins and Alexa Chung has its merits, cultivating a look that will work for years instead of wanting to dress exactly like somebody else will always be the best option. Whether you’re looking for a total style overhaul or to try something a little new, there are some simple steps that can make you like what you see when you open your wardrobe each morning. First, you need to understand what you really, really love, then you can start to identify what makes you feel confident. Scroll for the eleven...
It’s Official: This is the Chicest Colour You Can Wear This Autumn
If there’s one word that summarised 2019’s style aesthetic, it would have to be beige. Instagram went wild for the shade, with feeds filling up with earthy-hued snapshots, meanwhile at fashion week the pavements were strewn with stripped-back ensembles in 50 shades of, you guessed it, beige. Now, I’m going to sound very ‘fashion’ right now, but 2020 has seen a shift in the colour trend stakes, and we’re seeing a new hue come to the fore: this autumn it’s all about pale beige (in the words of The Devil Wears Prada: it’s a tough call, they’re so different). The trick is to apply the same principles as you did to last year’s deeper shades of beige: Going head-to-toe is the way to...
The Lesser-Known High-Street Brands We’re Championing This Year
Although the big-name high-street brands (H&M, Mango, etc.) will always have a special place in my heart, there’s something exciting about coming across a lesser-known label. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with buying into the latest trending item. However, as all true fashion lovers will know, it can be easy to become disillusioned by the identikit ensembles that can come from sticking to the well-trodden path. My solution? Take some time every few months to dig around online and discover some new brands. This will ensure that your wardrobe is kept fresh, diverse and individual and help avoid the awkward outfit-clash moment. To save you time, I’ve scoured the internet and interrogated the Who What Wear team to find our top lesser-known affordable brands a...
I Think This Is Going to Be the Most-Wanted Coat Trend of 2020
To compile our autumn winter 2020 trend report I looked back at hundreds of catwalk images, and it quickly became clear that there is one coat trend that featured in almost every major collection and so is destined to dominate new-in sections this autumn. The likes of Bottega Veneta and Stella McCartney created beautiful trenches and tailored coats in buttery leathers—some real, and some vegan—in caramel, chocolate brown, teal and terracotta shades, as well as a more classic black leather. Leather coats have moved away from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comparisons, as thanks to beautiful tailoring and rich colour palettes, these are some of the most elegant coats I’ve ever seen.

I Live in London, and This Is How to Wear Summer’s Biggest Trends
Take a quick glance at London-based digital marketing consultant Chloé Pierre’s Instagram feed and it’s pretty obvious that she has an undeniably cool style. From her proclivity towards the latest trends to the way she infuses classic basics into her of-the-moment looks, a lot can be learned from following her fashionable pursuits. This skillset of hers is precisely why I wanted to tap her for a story and was beyond thrilled when she agreed to indulge us. Fast-forward to today. Below you’ll find not just the seven summer trends Chloé is backing this time around, but also her take on each one and, of course, a glimpse at how she’s wearing them during her everyday life in London. For her on-the-mark commentary on tennis style (which...
I Can’t Believe I’m Saying This, But I’m Really Into Quilted Vests Right Now
I have long associated quilted vests with the posh boys at university, who wore them over their rugby shirts with red trousers and boat shoes (if this image resonates with you, then it’s because you know it to be highly accurate). While I mean no disrespect to this way of dressing, it was and is perhaps completely different in every way to my own personal style. And, if I’m being honest, I’ve always found it lacking in terms of being, well, cool. But, as with literally everything in fashion, it’s eventually become a sought-after piece (even Crocs have had their moment in the fashion spotlight).
